3 Practices so far....

All I can say is wow!!! They are brutal for someone who is out of shape like me. LOL... I so far have bruised the balls of my hands from the falls we're learning, along with my thumbs and index fingers, and I've got a bruise on my inner right thigh. Don't know how I got that one yet, but I'm sure I'll figure it out somehow. I've also pulled my muscle in my groin area. Hurts like you know what, but I'll survive. I need to work on lunges so I can get better at getting up from a fall. My leg muscles are weak. I also need to work on balance and get my balance better on one leg for the crossovers. That kind of scares me still. I mean I haven't been on skates in over 30 years. What do you expect. I'm not young you know. But like I said, I've only had 3 practices now. We have 6 weeks of practices to get good and get on a team.

But also so far, I've met some really great gals and the veterans of the league are super great. They are very encouraging for all us "Fresh Meat" that are very unsure of ourselves. They all work side by side with us and help us with our weaknesses and show us what we can do to improve ourselves. It's very cool.

Have a great a day!!!!
